This is probably one of the coolest and most informative videos i have seen in a very long time, and that's including actual training seminar videos series, and live presence seminars. Ben and Shane are absolute Jedi Masters when it comes to tuning and development! What a wealth of knowledge you guys have shared here! Can't wait to see the next one!

Ive always wondered when someone is gonna figure out how to log live, analog cylinder pressure rather than calculate it based on fuel and air quantity, density, etc. This is really cool to see! Lots of guys aren't willing to share this kind of info, and i really appreciate you walking through data and not being afraid to be technical. Also love watching Shane work his magic. You need to get on his tail about putting more content on his KZread.

Absolutely a killer team around the the Sorceress, has to be the most professional I've seen and yes we are following and supporting from here in Aus. Love your work and the video content is perfect with tech talk.

SUPER KOOL to hear all of your detail and information. Especially for us lay people who simply can't do this but have the mind for serious drag racing. Thank you

This is golden! Have always tuned by feel and hearing the engine. More fuel to the middle cylinders for them being hotter. Four banger abd number 3 is the hottest as it’s further from the water pump and has two buddies heating it up, second the same thing then comes the fourth and first cylinders, the coldest of the bunch. Boy it would be nice to measure exhaust temp and lambda on all of the holes. This is very interesting stuff!

you know how good your video is when a guy wakes up and starts listening while eating toasts , cheese , and chocolate milk !

Thanks for taking us along on this latest journey ! It's great to see the Sorceress making her way back. Thanks Rod 🙂

Thank you for sharing, fellas. I'm digging the new to me data.

I love this car

Very, very cool and thanks for the combustion lessons. When you understand the fundamental processes, and have the right data, and SpinTron data, motors like this can create "gobs" (mechanical engineering term) of power and remain happy. You all are awesome - thanks for sharing your journey.

I really appreciate the emphasis on safety like wearing the fire suit onto the dyno.

Absolutely incredible video! This is my kind of YT content, 3 legends in one room.

Ignition event and fuel mixture control for each individual cylinder is an awesome concept,and achievable with today’s electronics.There’s a lot of power to be gained with this application of technology.You guys seem to be onto the future of combustion efficiency and maximum power for racing combinations.I enjoy your scientific approach AND your laboratory.

Very , very impressive! Quite a journey . Thanks for sharing. PS: you might want to add anther support to that oil tank.

Bit Wiggly isn’t it? This is the point of being in the dyno. Things you can see before you head down the race track.

Very cool to see you guys still getting after it. Car sounds incredible can't wait to see some passes.

Such a wicked video. Love this kind of information. Thank you for sharing. Love from New Zealand as always :)

So so cool. I love people lost in screaming it needs to go to the track for their validation. 😂 This team appear to be loving the journey. I can’t believe the sharing from total heavyweights of knowledge in Shane and Ben. Great attitude from everyone. That dyno cell is 👌 Hear how quiet 3000hp+ was through the window. That’s nuts. Spintron versus actual combustion beating and flexing will be interesting comparison on the valve train. I’m guessing it’s rods replacement following these 2 days of testing?

Well done too the whole team and Well worth waiting on the comeback. 🎉 exciting times ahead❤

That’s awesome Rod great to see your still living the dream!!

Thanks for another informative video 🍻

Well done guys!! I've been following you for the last couple of years or so, I'm so pumped to see the talent you have brought together. I love data and this is a tuners wet dream! Hello from New Zealand

Hi nice to share this kind of tech! I usually joke to my v8 customers in the dyno that a v8 is 8 engines on one crankshaft. looking forward to part 2.

Thanks for sharing all the data on the car. She sounds very nice

Awesome video thank you !!!!

Thanks to Rod for sharing the development details so openly, and thanks to both Shane and Ben for patiently explaining what most "tuners" keep to themselves. This is the dream scenario for car nerds. (DSX Mainline Dyno, ground breaking car build, Shane T, and Ben)

what a blessing to be able to even afford this type of work..... and then the talent... ready for tomorrow..

Man this was a great video!

Good stuff lads!

Hey, this is not nonsense! And the overheard talks about flame fronts and fuel mixtures are golden nuggets of tuning arts. Definitely going to follow where this goes.. Btw, there might be some unwanted turbulence inside both your intake plenum and your fuel rails. These pressure differences can cause the spikes and can be tuned around up to a certain level. Then there's the accuracy of data. When every temperature, gas mixture and pressure value are converted to resistance values and these values then read with a device and converted to a graph, the accumulated heat affects to the calibration of the conversion.

Great Work How much power How much torque Maximum R P M Great Car 🚗 Interested to see what times ⏲️ 👀 you get with this BEAST 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

It looks like the left side of the motor smokes more on the deceleration and being in the HVAC business the ventilation in the dyno room is impressive. Lot of great information guys thanks for the video.

Very cool! What are you guys using for an encoder input for the combustion analysis software, and how was TDC determined? Prox probe? Motoring the #1 cylinder? Also, with Plex software, are you able to view CA10 and CA90 as well? It would be quite handy if it had enough channels to view coil and injector data as well versus crank angle.

My shop needs this combustion data, how can I get it for single cylinder engine dyno use only?

👍👍

are you guys looking at coolant pressure? it was spitting a little bit of water

Could those huge oscillations in the graph be preignition or detonation events?

I’ll never understand people using a dyno to “pull down” an engine at the end of a run whilst still on the throttle - in no world is an engine making 2400rwhp that’s accelerating in rpm going to stop accelerating, and begin decelerating whilst wide open, so why make it happen on the dyno? Such a cool combo! And awesome tech, CA50 is such a cool data to use.

So, this iteration of the car will be a drag and drive ProMod when complete?

Is boost creep a problem or planning to run all of it? Seems like it'd be a LOT to lay the turbo's down and back and put the waste gates on the front of the bend it'd create. Freaking awesome build

@TunedbyShaneT

Sure is not a problem. It only presents a problem on the dyno. Once we are on track we can control the boost using the blow off valve.

@@blakeengland7784 well we have experience from running the engine previously and we know what we need to run on track to keep the engine alive. From there we adjust upward and downward to find best power. That gives us the answer so if we find ourselves in need of extra power at the possible expense of engine damage, we know where to go.

Water is coming out of the radiator when you back off the power could be a crash if you were on a track

Can I ask why you guys are not reading any of the spark plugs at all? When watching FuelTech, Steve Morris, Noonan, Nelson Racing Engines and several of the other big companies that are checking them out every few hits? Not trying to bash anyone at all just trying to ask questions.

First, they weren’t going for max horsepower in this video and I’m a huge Steve Morris fan. This was meant to teach you something not to have a dick measuring contest with someone else’s engine. When you have a vehicle that makes 3k horsepower then post it. I highly doubt Steve would be on here bragging about his engine so maybe you shouldn’t be.

1200 hp is not very impressive😮

Bro u didn't even watch the entire vid and commented that

It made a lot of coolant pressure on the 3400 hp run. Pushed a lot of water out of the radiator cap , that would put you into the wall. I don’t understand why you don’t dry deck the block of the heads and run, coolant separately through them and let the head gasket only seal combustion. Then it would have nothing to do with water. It’ll save your car and the paint on the Gard rails.

horrible camera work , when someone is explaining something technical & pointing to a screen you should be filming the screen/monitor rather than the person explaining it. I really am no wiser for watching this. WOFTAM

Hell yes
